DUKE GIVES HIS VERSION
KENWORTHY MAINTAINS INNO
CENCE OF WRONG-DOING.
Judge Landis Declared to Have
"Tugged Wrong" in Making
Seattle Tlayer Ineligible.
SEATTLE, Wash., Feb. 20. (Spe
cial.) .Bill Kenworthy, slugger ex
traordinary and at present engaged
in a little spat with baseball's highest
authority, says Judge Landis has dec
orated him with the Order of the
Goat. The iron duke rises to remark
that, the esteemed jurist Is not giving
him what is known in the language
of the diamond as "a 50-50 break."
"The judge must be a smart per
son," wails the ex-Seattle skipper,
"but he has tagged wrong."
The duke denies that he has broken
any of baseball's laws, and points
with pride to his long record on the
ballfield. Today he outlined in detail
the differences between the jurist and
himself, throwing new light on the
case which is attracting quite a
flurry among baseball followers up
and down the coast. The duke's
statement: .
"Not long ago Judge Landis ordered
ime to sign an order permitting him
to obtain all of my personal tele
grams from the telegraph company.
I objected, as I- did not -see- why any
one should obtain my personal tele
grams. "Last week I was notified by the
Judge that I had been placed on the
Ineligible list for not complying witn
his request.
"Since then I have given him per
mission to look up all my baseball
correspondence and I am hopeful that
he will change his decision. In all
my 15 years of baseball I have never
been charged with, breaking the laws
of the game. The recent action of
Landis has hurt me keenly, and 1
want the baseball nubile to know
that I am innocent of wrong-doing.
Much pressure is being brought to
"bear to have Kenworthy reinstated.
His friends point out that the duke
has always been a credit to the game,
and they believe that even if he did
use poor Judgment in not co-operat
lnsr with the commissioner more fully
In the recent case his baseball record
entitles him to more consideration.
TOLLEY AGAINST PETITION
British olf Star Thinks 32 Quali-
flers Too Few.
BROOKLYN, Feb. 20. That Cyril
Tolley, the British amateur golf cham
pion of 1920, has his own views is
shown by his statement in London the
other day, inspired by the petition
just sent to St. Andrews, asking that
the British amateur championship
conditions be changed to a 36-hole
qualifying round with 32 qualifying
for 36-hole match.
Tolley was one of the signers, yet
In his statement to the Times ha
seems to have doubts as to the merits
of the American system, as may be
judged from his criticism, which may
be of value to those Yankee golfers
who do not agree that the American
system cannot be improved upon.
Britain's ex-champion Bays:
"Although I am one of the signa
tories of the petition for the altera
tion of the championship conditions,
should like to state that I am not
wholly in agreement with the pro-
Dosed alterations.
"In the first place. I consider that
82 to qualify is quite inadequate.
When you have 200 golfers competing
it Is absurd to assume that the 32 best
score players will contain the best
match players, and the fact of elimi
nating 168 players will merely pro
duce the best match player from the
32 best-score players. Again, many
first-class match players are quite
terrified at the idea of a card and
pencil, and they would never under
take the long journey to Prestwick or
St. Andrews when they stand but a
faint chance of qualifying."
1). S. ATHLETES LEAD WORLD
37 Records Held Out of Some 90
Odd Standard Events.
NEW YORK, Feb. 20. (By the As
sociated Press.) Athletes of the
United States lead the world as hold
era of track and field records. An
matysis of the latest list of world's
records, accepted by the International
Amateur Athletic federation, show?
that out of some 90-odd standard
events, the best time or distance has
been made by American athletes In
37 contests. Th's number, a trifle
more than one-third of the entire list
of accepted records, . is also greater
than the combined total of any two
other nations.
America's nearest competitor for
the honor of leading the world in the
matter of record holders is Great
Britain, whose athletes have marked
up the best time for distance in 28
events. Denmark and Finland are
tied for third place with seven, rec
ords each. No other national ap-
proaches the versatility of the Amer
ican athlete, for the United States
performers have established records
in six out of the seven groups of com
petition into which the world's rec
ord events naturally divide them-
lves.
The apportionment of world's rec
ords among the seven holding na
tions is as follows: , -
United States. 13 runs. 5 iumw. 4
weights, 1 discus-Javelin, 6 hurdles, S relay
Britain, 5 runs, 13 walks, 1 jump,
1 relay racing.
finiana, 5 runs. 2 dlscus-j&velln.
Denmark, 7 walks.
Sweden, 4 runs, 1 discus-Javelin.
Prance, 6 runs. - , ;
Canada, 2 hurdles. ,
BEST BOWXEKS IN TOURNEY
Annual World's Classic Contest Is
Staged This Week in Chicago.
CHICAGO, Feb. 20. Twenty-four
picked bowlers, the nation's best, ac

and match averages, will compete In
the first annual world's classic tour
nament here February 19 to 25. The
contestants have been elected from
large field, which was narrowed
to 50 and later to 24.
In tha past, the winner of the all-
events in the American Bowling con-
ress tournament has been consid
ered the leader in the bowling world.
There Is a certain element of luck
in rolling a few games and a man
mar roll below or above his normal
average. This marathon of 1S15 games,
however, which will last for 16 con
secutive days, is ' believed by the
tournament committee to be a test
which will determine the actual bowl
ing champion.

ACES OF SERIES FOR SALE
GIANTS PUT DOUGLAS AND
BARNES ON MARKET.
Pitching Marvels "to Be Disposed
of to the Club Offering
the Best Inducement."
NEW YORK. Feb. 20. Pitchers
Philip Douglas and Jesse Barnes, each
of whom won two world's Series
games for the New York Nationals
last fall, today were placed on the
market, "to be disposed of to the club
offering the beat Inducement."
The proposal to sell the players was
unexpected in National league cir
cles. Charles Stoneham, president of
the club, said that when it was de
cided to get rid of Barnes and Douglas
several tempting offers were received
but declared the owners would wait
until Wednesday to announce what
they would accept.
Douglas and Barnes were the only
Giant pitchers who had signed 1922
contracts but this fact, Mr. Stone
hame said, was not the reason they
had been placed on the market. Doug
las was one or the tiiants' best pitch
ers last year, while Barnes who had
trouble with his arm during the Tegu
lar season, proved an ace in the
world's series.

Tank Splashes
National and world's record honors are
claimed for the 100-yard breast swim In
1:29 2-5, made by Miss Dorothy Andre of
Southeastern high Bchool, Detroit, In the
75-foot pool of the Detroit Y. M. C. A.
recently. Tom Clemens, her coach, has
submitted to the American Athletio Union
fully attested vouchers for the perform
ance While , an American standard of
1:21) 1-5 is listed officially to the credit
of Miss Ruth Smith of-Columbus, Ohio, it
was made in a 60-foot tank, so under the
new classification both marks will be reg
istered by the governing body.
An international rule requiring tanks
at least la feet long will prevent recogni
tion as a world's standard of the 220-yard
free style swim in 2:19 8-5 returned by
John Weissmuller of the Illinois Athletic
club in the 60-foot home pool, even though
the time is the fastest ever made for the
distance officially. In comparing this mark
with the worlds accepted record of
2:19 4-5. It will be remembered the latter
was set by Teddy Cann, then representing
the Detroit Athletio club In a 75-foot pool,
or with two turns less than Weissuller
had to make. As it is well established that
an advantage is gained at the turns In
middle distance swimming, there seems
no doubt that Cann's actually is the better
performance. -
B. J. Wood of Yale did more than shat
ter the national collegiate record when
he plunged 79 feet In the College of New
Fork meet recently, as against the former
standard of 78 feet by C. G. Lehman of
Pennsylvania. He stamped himself a most
likely caudidate for American Athletic
Union championship and record ' laurels.
Experts who saw the contest believe he
would have beaten the national American
Athletic Union record of 82 feet 9 Inches
had he steered correctly throughout,
he looks like a dangerous rival to Fred
:9Schwedt of Detroit, present champion and
recoranoiaer. -
